Vino Valencia Tasting Notes
Appearance: faintly greenish white
Nose: green apples, pineapple, fruity
Palate: refreshing, apples, melon?, nice acidity, stays lingering in the mouth, complex flavors all lightly present
Alter Ego food thoughts: montadito with cheese cream, rugola and shrimp
Appearance: Pale straw with a golden edge, quite bright.
Nose: Tropical fruits, melon pineapple and peaches.
Palate: Nice structure, plenty of fruit balanced by a good fresh acidity and a long finish. First tasted at the wine bloggers tasting in Utiel in early April, this was I think the favourite wine of those attending the May wine night! Very good value for money.
Appearance: A beautiful pale yellow
Nose: a mix of citrus fruit and flowers
Palate:It almost seems it has bubbles as it tingles the in the mouth.
This is truly a unique wiht wine. I have to say it is my favorite white. I have known this wine for more than a year and have introduced it to many of my friends. It is now their favorite white too.
